Discussion continued on the fact that working under the <br />Sunshine Law causes some problems in cases like this, and <br />Attorney Brandenburg pointed out that if the Commission just <br />lets the foreclosure proceed and the new owner takes the <br />property, we can immediately start action for a new lien. <br />He stressed that the whole idea is to get this matter <br />resolved rather than make money. <br />The Board continued to mull over the possibility that <br />we might want to bid on this property, and Assistant <br />Attorney Paull pointed out that the Board must consider the <br />clean up cost. <br />The possibility of using this land in conjunction with <br />Gifford Park came up, and Chairman Scurlock suggested that <br />the Board might want to authorize staff to do an analysis of <br />what clean up costs would amount to. <br />Attorney Paull pointed out that the time schedule is <br />very tight, since the sale is on Monday. <br />Chairman Scurlock felt we could give staff a not -to - <br />exceed figure based on the cost to clean up, and Attorney <br />Paull believed there are bidders interested. <br />Administrator Wright emphasized that the whole point of <br />the action is to clean up the property not to acquire it. <br />He did not feel it is very desirable for the purpose of <br />adding to Gifford Park; he noted that cleaning it up could <br />present a considerable problem; and he suggested that the <br />Board follow the Attorney's recommendation to let someone <br />else bid the property in and then if they don't clean it up, <br />start another Code Enforcement action. <br />MOTION was made by Commissioner Lyons, SECONDED <br />by Commissioner Wodtke, not to bid on the subject <br />property. <br />MAY 16 1984 <br />49 <br />BOOK 57 PAGE 49 <br />
